Sometimes the most beautiful things are the thorniest.
Thistles being one of them.
I suppose you could say love is another.
I saw this Canadian thistle, sprouting up amongst the tall grasses and blackberry vines.
Such a splash of color! Light lavender and green, brightening up the wayside.
A thing of great beauty, but what pain it can cause!
Especially if you try to get close.
Having feelings for someone can be painful sometimes, and it isn't always easy to know when to cut your losses and move on.
But I don't give up easily.
If it fades away, and I hope it doesn't -- at least it won't be for my lack of trying.
